Giant Toilet in Yosemite

We found this huge toilet at a campsite in yosemite, i guess your supposed to use it to flush food you don't want so the bears don't get it... either way, I thought it was important for people to know that huge toilets do exist in this world of ours.

That's not a "toilet" per se, but a self-flushing clinic service sink. It's really strange seeing one out of a hospital setting since they're mostly used for dumping bedpans and such but since it's at a campsite it's probably used for disposing of waste from portable toilets or, as you demonstrated, food scraps.

Yeah that's actually exactly what it was for. I guess it's super important to keep the food scraps as far away from the bears as possible:)

ADDITIONAL NOTE: Using a clinic service sink as a toilet is an ingenious improvisation in a national campground where people camp in a rustic setting without bathrooms, thus making it easier for campers to dump their pots and their portable urinals.

Everybody who says that this "toilet" is actually a clinic service sink is correct. The sink is designed to flush itself like a toilet to ensure the complete evacuation of waste material. The weak flush is due to low water pressure, undersized piping, or an improperly adjusted flushometer valve.

I worked in that campground in the late 80's and had to clean that.

Frequently seen in funeral homes and mortuaries used to flush blood and other body fluids and waste away during embalming process.

Do they also come in wall-mounted forms, and with automatic flushing systems?

[Paulywint]

That is actually a sheet rinse system. Hospitals and nursing homes has these. THis is unit usually takes care of soiled sheets. YOu flush it, and hold tight on the sheets to rinse them off with a hose that is connected to the flushomter. There is no hose on this unit in the video though.

I was told that that was where RV and camper owners would go to dump there poo tanks.
